What Quest Scholars say about academics at Swarthmore...
“The students are extremely studious and do not compete . . . The great thing about them is no matter what they are doing they are always willing to stop and lend a helping hand.”
- Carlos Villafuerte, Economics and Philosophy double major, Class of 2008
“Since we have a great faculty to student ratio, each faculty member has only a few students to advise, so you can get more attention and better advice.”
- Candice Cherk, Biology and Asian Studies double major, Class of 2007
What Quest Scholars say about their internships...
“I am currently researching cyanobacteria at the Carnegie Institution of Washington at Stanford University. I got this position through a professor's connection. Having strong relationships with your professors (and thus having a network) is one of Swarthmore's greatest advantages.”
- Candice Cherk, Biology and Asian Studies double major, Class of 2007
